Reduce food waste with Capgemini and Microsoft

Connected supply chain and inventory management: developing food waste strategies and technologies in collaboration with Microsoft.

One trillion dollars’ worth of food goes wasted every year. Now, new food waste technology makes it possible to dramatically reduce waste in the supply chain and food industry. Food waste takes a toll on the world collectively, and cuts into the profits of every company in the food industry. Fortunately, new solutions make it possible to illuminate the entire value chain, enabling farmers, transportation companies, warehouses and retailers to reduce food waste on a scale never before possible. We have teamed-up with Microsoft to provide unprecedented visibility to help reduce waste across the food value chain.

On the floor: real-time solutions for reducing food waste

You gain multiple, practical, shop-floor tools that help you optimize food use. Reminders indicate what food is ready for rotation and suggest the steps you can take to avoid loss. Real-time planning software helps you match supply to predicted demand. You’ll even be provided with a list of food-saving priorities, so that you can be sure to take the highest value action first.
